Obama’s Africa Hypocrisy By Margaret Kimberley July 30, 2015 "Information Clearing House" - "BAR" - The president’s visit to East Africa has been the occasion for the same kind of hypocritical finger pointing Barack Obama usually reserves for his frequent hectoring of Black America, this time using “gay rights” as the standard.

Since last week, Turkish jets have launched airstrikes into Iraq, targeting the Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), the Kurdish nationalist militant group it has fought with varying degrees of intensity since the mid-1980s. The PKK has retaliated with attacks on military targets in Turkey.
